Could this be the Best Mobile Game Ever?

Could this be the Best Mobile Game Ever?

Corey King's revolution is running out of time.

It's called Clandestine: Anomaly. It's been in the works for two years now and, if King has his way, it will spawn a franchise with multiple installments in the years ahead. It's an epic that would take place across the world, and across numerous entertainment mediums. It's an indie project for which King has already recruited a few dozen composers, artists, writers, engineers and designers from all over his native Canada. It's an unusual effort that he believes will legitimize an entire genre. And it might even be a little more than he can chew.

Clandestine: Anomaly is an augmented reality game.

But its future is in doubt. King and his Winnipeg-based studio, ZenFri, took their big idea to Kickstarter earlier this month. They're asking for $50,000. With just six days left before funding ends, ZenFri is currently $42,000 short of its goal.

Where Clandestine: Anomaly goes from here is uncertain. King's ambitions for the project, however, are anything but.
